Ergopod, the connections between the Ergopod
controller and the displays, are as follows:

FUNC TIONAL DE SCRIP TION
20
The Ergopod is designed to provide remote control of
up to six displays. Typical configurations are shown in
Figures 5f, and 6f.
21
For information on the control facilities provided, refer
to paragraph 25 - Operating Information
22 The Ergopod Controller PCB is fitted with LED
indicators which provide the following indications:
LED Function
D1 Flashes at 1Hzto indicate correct
operation of software.
D5, D12, D16, D18,
D20 Serial Inputs
D23 Flash Programming
D31, D32, D33, D34,
D35, D36 Power Supply from Displays 1 to 6
respectively.
23 When the Ergopod is used in the "Dual Ergopod"
mode, up to 5 displays can be connected to a single
Ergopod controller. The Display connected to PL2 on the
PCB is the default display when power is switched on.
NOTE:
The Slave Ergopod Controller also uses the display
connected to PL2 on the PCB as the default display when
power is switched on, but will not take control until either
the Master or Slave is moved on to another display.
24
The Ergopod Controller PCB requires a +12V power
supply. The +12V supply is normally supplied via one
of the displays.
NOTE:
If only one display is sup12V to an Ergopod
controller PCB, then switching off this display will disable
both the Ergopod and the associated controller.
